This article gives a short introduction to get started with logic programming in Prolog that
do not require any previous programming experience. The presentation is aimed at students of
linguistics, but it does not go deeper into linguistics than any student who has some ideas of what
a computer is, can follow the text.
Our approach differs from the traditional ones by including constraint-based techniques which makes
it possible, in a surprisingly straightforward way, to characterize and analyze pragmatic-semantic phenomena
by so-called abductive reasoning.
